'Twisty and riveting ... seamlessly blends insider tradecraft and a doomsday plot' David McCloskey
THE THRILLING INTERNATIONAL PHENOMENON FROM THE FORMER INTELLIGENCE AGENT
THE GAME IS ON. AND IT'S ABOUT TO GET DEADLY...
DGSE operative Alec de Payns is an undercover agent in the elite Y Division of France's famed intelligence service. When a routine mission goes fatally wrong, Alec is forced to confront the unthinkable: his team has been betrayed by one of their own.
Tasked with investigating a covert bio-weapons facility in Pakistan, Alec must race to uncover its secrets to save the lives of his loved ones. But with a traitor in the ranks, deceit following his every move, it's not just Alec in the firing line. It's the potential destruction of Paris itself...
Five-star reader raves:
'WOW!'
'As good as it gets'
'Best espionage I've ever read'
'Best spy novel...and by someone who has been a spy!'
A twisty and riveting thriller that seamlessly blends insider tradecraft and a doomsday plot with the realities of love, family, and friendship in the secret world. A propulsive, rip-your-guts-out adrenaline ride, The Frenchman also explores the weighty, unseen sacrifices made by intelligence officers and their families the world over. This one will leave a mark. -- David McCloskey, bestselling author of DAMASCUS STATION, and co-presenter of THE REST IS CLASSIFIED
One of the finest examples of the spy genre in recent memory. Suspenseful, masterfully plotted, and completely riveting. But what truly sets it apart from others in the field is its matchless authenticity, and the book's keen interest in its characters and the human cost of the worlds they inhabit. -- Nic Pizzolatto, author of GALVESTON and creator and writer of HBO's TRUE DETECTIVE
Beaumont reveals a world of international espionage that's at once exhilarating, morally repugnant, and deadly... An action-packed spy thriller with an authentic feel. * Kirkus Reviews *
With fascinating insights into the razor-sharp instincts of an international spy, The Frenchman is an intense and stylish thriller. Jack Beaumont offers a vivid portrait of Paris full of sly intrigue and covert activity. And the risks and tensions are ratcheted-up with every chapter. -- Timothy Schaffert
